rienie 's review for:
The Cabinet of Curiosities
by Douglas Preston, Lincoln Child
There was a bit of a plot orphan that was a bit distracting, but over all this was a very enjoyable story with likable and interesting characters.
I often find descriptions of torture and gore to be heavy handed and gratuitous. The result is that I am taken out of the story rather than deeper in, but in this story the descriptions were handled with such finesse and humanity that it really brought the characters involved closer to the reader.
I very much look forward to the other books in the series.
